Use an upward angle to shoot from beneath the plaque, applying the rule of thirds in composition. Place the “Jingshi Tangxue” plaque at the right one-third of the frame, with the sunset sky on the left to balance the composition. Include the architectural plaque, the orange-yellow evening sky, and the silhouettes of trees in the lower left corner to add depth. A medium to long telephoto lens is recommended to highlight the details of the plaque and the contrast with the sky colors. Other tips: Avoid peak times and visit during off-peak hours to minimize crowds.
